This is easily achieved by downloading `the Adafruit library and driver bundle `_. Installing from PyPI -------------------- On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from PyPI `_. To install for current user: .. code-block:: shell pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pn532 To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases): .. code-block:: shell sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pn532 To install in a virtual environment in your current project: .. code-block:: shell mkdir project-name && cd project-name python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-pn532 Usage Example ============= Check examples/pn532_simpletest.py for usage example Contributing ============ Contributions are welcome! Please read our `Code of Conduct `_ before contributing to help this project stay welcoming. Building locally ================ Zip release files ----------------- To build this library locally you'll need to install the `circuitpython-build-tools `_ package. .. code-block:: shell python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip install circuitpython-build-tools Once installed, make sure you are in the virtual environment: .. code-block:: shell source .env/bin/activate Then run the build: .. code-block:: shell circuitpython-build-bundles --filename_prefix adafruit-circuitpython-pn532 --library_location . Sphinx documentation ----------------------- Sphinx is used to build the documentation based on rST files and comments in the code. First, install dependencies (feel free to reuse the virtual environment from above): .. code-block:: shell python3 -m venv .env source .env/bin/activate pip install Sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme Now, once you have the virtual environment activated: .. code-block:: shell cd docs sphinx-build -E -W -b html . _build/html This will output the documentation to ``docs/_build/html``. Open the index.html in your browser to view them. It will also (due to -W) error out on any warning like Travis will. This is a good way to locally verify it will pass.
